Spain's Digital Nomad Visa (Ley 28/2022) gives non-EU remote workers a path to residency with a 24% Beckham-law flat tax on Spanish-source income. These six cities each clear three filters: 1 Gbit fibre on at least 80% of postcodes, ten or more independent coworking spaces, and median apartment prices under €4,500/m².
